In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth and well combined.
Place a wonton wrapper on a flat surface and spoon about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture into the center.
Brush the edges of the wrapper with the beaten egg and fold the wonton in half to create a triangle. Press the edges to seal tightly. You can also fold the edges in to form a purse shape if desired.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 350°F (175°C).
Carefully fry the wontons in batches for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
Serve warm with sweet chili sauce or your preferred dipping sauce.

For a lighter version, try baking the wontons at 400°F (200°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
Feel free to add cooked crab, shrimp, or vegetables to the cream cheese filling for variation.
Make sure to seal the edges of the wonton wrappers well to prevent the filling from leaking during frying.
